About Me

Cressida McLaughlin with blonde hair and green eyes, smiling softly, wearing a black floral top and a ghost pendant, a white wrist watch, standing in the sunshine, crossing her arms in front of a yellow wall with an arched mirror reflecting greenery.

I am a bestselling author of contemporary romance, and have sold over a million copies of my books. My fiction is feel-good and escapist, featuring unforgettable characters who find their happy place, and I’m most well known for my eight book Cornish Cream Tea series. The Secret Mistletoe Promise, the second book in my Norfolk-set series, is my eighteenth novel.

I live in Norwich with my husband David, and when I’m not daydreaming about my books, other people’s books or romantic heroes in general, I love exploring the windswept Norfolk coastline or returning to my home city of London.  I’m a huge fan of ghost stories, coffee and Henry Cavill.

I’d love to hear from you about anything book-related or otherwise, so if you feel like it, please get in touch!
